lyrics

Hold on this might be the first
Chorus so tough it don't need a verse
Beats so sick it might need a nurse
And I'm about to kill it bring me the hurst
I don't need to curse, he's so lyrical
Some might even say that he's biblical
The whole crowd like
How bad boy talk so grisly, yet sound so spiritual

Maybe you don't want to go with me
Maybe you have heard some things
I can't promise nothing, not even tomorrow
But one thing I can promise is
I'm ready for what tomorrow brings

I'm watching you watching me
I can tell you're afraid of what you see
People like, love your people
I promise, I love my people
Mama said mama say mama sa
Mama save me please, mama said
Mama knew how to lecture though
Mama said eat them vegetables
That's the only way you'll stretch and grow
Mama said, love your people
Or we'll come through your whole city like
Huh ha huh ha, don't play with me
Lord have mercy, my mama said
Huh ha huh ha, child don't play with me
We'll run all through your city like
Huh ha huh ha
Don't let them chant you down
Snuffed when they prance around
Bet they won't chance it now
Huh ha huh ha
Don't let them chant you down
Snuffed when they prance around
Bet they won't chance it now

Force Majeure

This could’ve been my album of the year if I’d noticed it. Hell. 2020, feeling like shit and then this musical balm appears. Live recording on one mic. Just bass and harp. Awesome. It swings like a pendulum do! Big shout out for Dezron’s love of coffee. I now have 2 of his albums and he’s proselytising on behalf of coffee on both. Damn right ☕️ Crinklechips
